It's been mentioned in the random discussion thread, but for those who may have missed the post: Mike Brown finalizing five-year contract to return as Cavaliers coach.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Mike Brown are finalizing a five-year, $20 million-plus contract for him to return as coach, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Brown was still ironing out details about his control within basketball operations, but a formal announcement will come as soon as Wednesday.
The fifth year of Brown's deal will include a buyout provision, a source said.

Let the "LeBron to Cleveland in 2014" speculation kick into high gear. With one unlikely reunion down, surely that's next in line.

If the Cavs get Mo Williams back then LeBron to Cleveland it is.

Well, that's a relief. Some rumors were linking him to the Sixers.

Yes, especially after the speculation that Shaw and Brown were the main candidates.

Yeah It would be the perfect move for Lebron's career, especially of he wins another ring this year, right?

I think this will be the test for Mike Brown. Is he really a good coach or was he riding superstars? His time in Cleveland should answer that.

I think he may possibly be a better coach than a lot of people believe him to be, but at the same time LeBron made him look a lot better than he was during his first stint in Cleveland.

He'll be doing the same when he returns.
Implement a decent defense the team can do, let Irving handle what to do on offense like what LeBron did.
